TVNewser reports that Keith Olbermann went in for emergency surgery to remove his appendix on Friday night. He will be off the air for a few days. We wish him well.
Rest up and Chill, Keith. Kick it back for a few days.
i hope he'll be o.k.
dupe
Ok people this is where we show we're better than the Daily Kos and other Liberal websites that if a Conservative were having medical treatment would be saying vile and hateful things..like the "I'm glad Tony Snow has cancer"thing.
So rise to the moment and wish KO a speedy recovery.
We're assured one thing, there won't be any recants or apologies from Olbermahn tonight.
Get well soon Keith
dear lord, i hope he's okay. Honestly, his very existence is what keeps me interested in politics. (the guy i love to hate so to speak.)
But a ruptured appendix usually doesn't cause too many problems, so long as he got to the hospital in time. Get well soon Kieth. (so that i can continue to rant and rave against you.)
one more thing to add, while keith is recovering, i really hope they get allison stewert to do his job. She's great. It's the only time i actually enjoy watching countdown, even when she's liberal. but she got totally jobbed by MSNBC with that stupid afternoon show, The Most. MSNBC is such a sausage fest in primetime. Would it kill them to maybe air one less retarded "doc block" and put a good female newscaster on.
Indeed, I hope he's okay.
I think his political views are, for the most part, crazy. And he's a lousy news anchor.
But goodness, I'm quite sure that there are principles and beliefs that we agree with that far, far outweigh any differences we have.
We're of the same species, so top speak.
But as Darwin pointed out: Competition within a species is more intense than competition between species.
SMG
Hope Mr. Olbermann recuperates swiftly and is soon back at work, orange, rested, and ready.
Let me add my voice to the chorus here. Get well soon Olby from Olbermannwatch!
an excellent point SteveMG. We have far more in common than we would ever care to admit. We are, all of us, descended from the ideals of classic liberalism. One side put more emphasis equality and the common good, and the other on liberty and individualism. And no matter how we disagree on them, we can all agree that all are noble goals.
We should be thankful of our similarities, and that we live in a country where our greatest political "enemy", holds such noble goals,( no matter how much we hate them. lol).
Get well soon, Olby.
good point mlong -
I don't watch his show anymore - he's crossed the line for my tastes - but I don't wish him any harm. I hope he recovers soon.
this is wierd.
It's like the day after 9/11 in here.
this is wierd.
It's like the day after 9/11 in here.
"Yeh republicans-----yeh.
No gay scandals this week !
We're #1."
But still a number of reports about Dems and their "funny money" man Hsu.
And it's nice to see while the Libs that post here are still in jerk mode the rest of us are acting like Adults..keep it up.
They are probbly trying to find a way to blame Bush for this. Anyway get well soon Keith.
Emergency surgery always sucks no matter what. Hope everything goes well.
Citizen Keith...
Get well soon.
Keith:
Yea. Get well and all that.
It's a shame that this happened to him. He had a free shot at Belechik for WPIT-NFL but got sidelined.
A Wally Pipp moment for Olby.
I think Krazy Keith should be a trooper and do a special comment from the hospital bed. That would be cool!
Kieth
So are your nurses doing any hernia checks?
We need another heartbreak blog.
Krazy Keith's been a pain in Bill's side
To name-call and offend Olby's tried
When you name people worst
The appendix may burst
Bad karma for the times that Keith lied
W and O'Reilly conspired against Keith
Had to give the viewing public relief
Special Comments missing
Unhinged Olbyloons will be a hissing
"Where is our leader?", they wail in grief
I ask for unanimous consent to revise and extend my earlier remarks.
'Cause I'm sure that the first day back on the job and within the very first segment, Olbermann will be comparing Bush to Francisco Franco, Tomas Torquemada and Jeffrey Dahmer.
With a side order of the Boston Strangler.
In which case, I deny having made the earlier post.
Politics aside..I hope Keith has a speedy recovery.
It's not like he had open heart surgery or something. He'll be fine.
best wishes for a speedy recovery for KO.
WOW! 30+ comments and no ill wishes for olby -- chalk up another one for the ADULTS here @ OW.
Best Wishes to the Bathtub Boy. Politics is a blood sport but nobody wants any ill health to come to Mr. Olbermann. Quick revovery sir~
I'll pray for him......but i ain't gonna like it.
Get well soon Olby.
Dammit!! Without Olberfrau driving the crazy bus, the left sounds a lot less kooky..Get well soon El Naranja!
Good news everyone. just read that Allison Stewert is confirmed for Monday and Tuesday Countdown.
Who is up for StewartWatch.com?
I'll start.
GRRRR! She makes me so angry!!!
Well still hoping KO a speedy recovery....but you just know he's kicking himself because he's going to miss out on the wall to wall coverage of O.J. going to jail...because you just know he'd find some way to link it to Bush.
Don't worry , both of his friends are keeping him company in the hospital. That's two more than he had last year.
Hope he's well soon.
I was wondering why he wasn't comment-tating tonight while my Chargers lost to the Foxboro cheaters, ahh make that NE Pat's.
God Bless Keithy, I'll be praying for your speedy recovery.
Get well soon so I can get back to disagreeing with your every word.
Here's hoping Keith has a speedy recovery. Appendectomies for someone in their 40s are no fun, and chances are he'll be off air for at least the next week.
While to me, his commentaries and "Countdown" are a whole are annoying, there's a difference between being woefully misguided and deliberately evil, and Olby doesn't fall into the latter category.
Such empathy. All the lies you tell trashing the man, and now you have such concern. Do you rent out as mourners at funerals, too?
"Such empathy. All the lies you tell trashing the man, and now you have such concern. Do you rent out as mourners at funerals, too?"
Were just better than you Libs..we can disagree with KO,attack him for being an hypocrite but without wishing him real harm..unlike you guys who give us as I said before the "I'm glad Tony Snow has cancer".
I don't wish harm or illness on anyone, 2:32, not even a bile-spewing abusive moonbat. Olby has hair-brained libnut political views, but I don't hate him personally.
You're a damn liar, mlong, like most of the posters on this site. I don't know a single person who said that about T. Snow. Why do you Republicans and Conservatives have to lie about everything? Well let me tell you, the American people are sick and tired of all your damn lies and your sexual perversions, and we're not going to take it any longer. When you go, and you will, just keep going all the way to hell!
I care as much about your opinion as I do for your namesake's music. I'm sure Olbermann doesn't care what you think, either, if it's called thinking. Why don't you go kick some puppies or steal cookies from children, you lowlife scum.
Sexual Perversion? So you admit being gay is being perverted. Progress.
Anyway, you said that nobody was glad that Tony Snow had cancer and called someone a liar who said it. Here are some quotes for you by the disgusting people on your side of the aisle.
From Think Progress:
"gonna have to disagree with you there. this recurrence sounds like karma to me. so much toxic crap has come out of this guy�s mouth he deserves some in the pooper. he�s an apologist and an enabler for mass murderers. I�m sure theres people out there who�ve had or had family whose had cancer, who wouldnt wish it on thier worst enemy. im not one of those people."
"I do not wish him to use SCIENCE to fight his cancer. GOD gave him the cancer so be it.
FUCK HIM. I hope he dies a horrible, miserable death, like the Iraqi people they have maimed and horrifically put asunder.
Fuck him, and the whole cabal of lying theiving scumbag mothefuckers.
I hold my pity and good will for those I WISH TO SEE upon the earth. Not those that deserve the eternal fires of damnation.
Good riddance to bad rubbish."
"GOD gave him the cancer, It is a total hypocrical stance for him to now say he wishes to use SCIENCE to fight it. Are you not happy with what God has done for you Tony???
HMMMM. You ingrateful piece of crap.
May you burn in hell, and die a long horrible death just like the Iraqi people your lies have wrought upon the land of your religion.
I cannot beleive you are actually alive. You are just a sack of protoplasm. Not human."
"THe sooner this lying sack of shit dies, the sooner I can pop open a bottle of Cordon Rouge�.I have a whole case reserved for anything bad that happens to these BAD people in the BushChaney�.Chaney�s MI will call for lots of bubbly�..Waiting impatiently�"
Had enough? Nah. How about this one from Daily Kos:
"Some less painful or quicker than others. Doesn't change the fact he is an enabler of mass murder.
I've had cancer, it sucks. So what? It's part of life and Tony Snow doesn't get a pass from me.
Would we all be saying the same positive thoughts if deadeye Dick had a heart attack and was in ICU. No. I'd be wishing for a long, lingering painful death. Then I'd want to piss on his grave."
Just one more from DailyKos:
"Tony Snow is a piece of shit and I have little sympathy for the man. He is not the first person to have cancer nor the last. Many great men and women have died from cancer, and if that is his fate, he won't be on the list. As far as seeing it as retribution, I don't believe in a god so don't misconstrue my comments to mean that I think god spited Tony Snow. Simply, I think what goes around comes around."
Now whose lying?
> I don't know a single person who said that about T. Snow. Why do you Republicans and Conservatives have to lie about everything?

Anon, we await your apology.
Good job odin... looks like someone went back under a rock after accusing the OW people of hate mongering.
There were several bog sites with that kind of posting after we found out Tony Snow had cancer... and many took the posts down after the general backlash. For shame... and worthy of our scrutiny!
Maybe NBC will now see how much better FNIA was without him. Costas and Collingsworth grilled the Pats and the NFL on the cheating scandal not by trying to be too smart or too clever or too moral. No Sirs or camera stares.
It was actually a good program and did not miss Olbermann "contribution."
Get well ya scumbag,
I hope you get well soon!
No hard feelings!
Love,
Rupert
FNIA did have a much better flow Sunday night, in part because of the absence of Keith's segments but also because no studio show can dole out enough air time to everyone when you've got six people (Costas, Collinsworth, Barber, Bettis, King and Olby) who have to be included in the mix.
Keith's emergency surgery would actually give both him and NBC Sports an easy out of the situation, where he can cut back his work level to just "Countdown" while he recovers from surgery, and NBC can simply continue doing the same type of show they did last night, without ever having to admit that Week 2's show went far better than Week 1, and what the reason for that change happens to be.
"Why do you Republicans and Conservatives have to lie about everything?"
The oldest talking point in the world!
"Why do you Republicans and Conservatives have to lie about everything?"

Becuz, you dummy, if we didn't lie there would be nothing to say!
Duh!
Get well soon Keith...
Although I agree with John, the FNIA program was a lot better without you.
I hope Olbermann gets well soon. We need a shinning example of the arrogant, ignorant, and elitist left. I know an appendix burst can be very painful. Maybe while he is in the hospital, the doctors can cure his Bush Derangement Syndrome, remove his head from his a$$, and his foot from his mouth. I don't know where the world would be without his lies, miss-information, and his troop bashing. Maybe O'Reilly will take a page out of Olbermann's playbook and wish him well, claim they have always been friends, and claim they talk on the phone frequently.
So, Johnny....was that "we wish him well" a sincere one, or an Irena Briganti wish-well?
"You're a damn liar, mlong, like most of the posters on this site. I don't know a single person who said that about T. Snow."
First of all my comments were directed at Liberal web sites like Kos not just the Lib posters here...Second enough Lib posters have shown the same attitudes regarding Bush and other Conservatives/Republicans so I still stand by my original statement.
"Maybe while he in the hospital, the doctors can cure his Bush Derrangement syndrome".

Lets hope so. It really is getting old listening to these Bush haters bash Bush for getting us stuck in an unneeded war and bankrupting the country. What notpickers! I mean It's not like he did anything really bad, like lying about sex!

Yawn...get something new or get lost, son.
with all the olbyloons who are so blindly devoted to their great leader, you'd think one of them would have some knowledge of how Kieth's doing. I imagine there is a prayer vigil outside his hospital. Oh wait, religion is evil to them. Maybe just some people hoping outside his hospital.

Right on! It's so boring. Democrats and liberals sound just like a broken record, don't they? You'd think they would just forget about little things like 4000 - 5000 Americans killed in regretable little wars started on little white lies that are fueling record deficits financed by countries like China, wouldn't you? They're no fun at all!
They just need to get a life and be happy!

Right Max! You hit the hammer on the nail with that comment! Everybody knew Saddam was a nuissance who kept razzing us and even harrassed our no-fly planes every now and then. We are America man! Nobody can disrespect us like that and get away with it! All we needed was a pres with guts enough to make up a few lies and feed off old information, add a terrorist attack by anyone at all, didn't have to be Saddam, and viola, we were in business. Saddam was toast!
What really worries me is those darned Democrats and liberals might get in and then take away my hard won tax cuts. I mean, you tell me: why can't we fight this war on borrowed money? I don't understand. We need to go shopping too and my prez understands that. I finally was able to get me that Ferrari I've been wanting and now they're trying to spoil everything for me. We got brave troops over their fightin for my right to shop and the Democrats want to take away some of my money and give it to them. What kind of a country is this?
thug- you will take home the crown for most ignorant poster today. Weak sarcasm and old talking points! Definitely a tired act, son.
"Weak sarcasm and old talking points!"
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Wow, now you really get it now. I like that!
Democrats don't seem to get it that talking about Bush and our war are old and they need to get something new to talk about. You and I know lamenting over dead troops, a bankrupted federal government, and unnecessary occupations are just tired old talking ponts, but they just don't seem to get that!
How dumb can they get?
Its really neat how smart we are. We don't like dealing with an inconvient fact, all we gotta do is label it a "talking point", and wizz, woosh, viola! It's debunked! To add emphasis, we just add "tired old talking point".
Beats lying, but we'll do that when we have to as well.
oh- the lying talking point too ....
good one....
what a loser!
At this point, republithug understood completely the metallity of who he was talking with...
blinbat, you are a loser too, son
republithug,
Personally I take great comfort in the fact that even if the Dems win the White House and Congress taxes for the top earners will not rise much and we will continue with a long term occupation of Iraq.
Also, the talk about universal health insurance will mean increased revenue for K Street.
You see my cute little dumb dumb. The political parties don't matter. So get out there and lie in the mall and force $45,000 a year policemen to physically lift you to jail. Organize a phone tree for a local candidate. Put another bumper sticker on you car.
But don't pretend that Bush leaving the White House is going to make a bit of difference.
anon tried so hard to spell "loser" correctly that he mispelled "blindrat"...
Sad, son...
What a sad sack, misspelling bindrat.

Geez, you're going to have to wait a long time, Aunt Flo. You have resorted to quoting people who write into blogs! Zonkers, Grandma, they're total crack pots without lives, hardly any education and who don't represent any organized pool of thought. Hell, I could probably give you a citation for Laura Bush selling classified secrets to Fidel Castro or Trent Lott turning tricks in the Senate Cloak Room or Osama Bin Laden eating pulled prok sandwiches. Can you imagine what kind of utter crap the Blue Blogs can get from citing people who post on this site? How about some intelligence here, or at least some common sense?
Say, Brainiac Benson: Bog Sites? What, do you work for Ocean Spray or something? Bet you've got a real shrinkage problem standing in that cold water all day. The Blue Bloggers are having a great time with that. Go back and complete the 5th grade.
Well, you, you don't talk to me Mr. Don't talk to me.

According to TV week, Olbermann is still in the hospital:
"MSNBC’s rising prime-time star Keith Olbermann was still hospitalized Monday after undergoing an emergency appendectomy Friday...."
http://www.tvweek.com/news/2007/09/olbermann_recovering_from_appe.php
----------------------------------
(funny, he still managed to bid for a baseball card on ebay, on Sunday (9-16)...although he did lose the auction---I have a feeling losing that card was way more upsetting/painful than emergency surgery for him).
Oh, I forgot, Get well Keith!
Olbermann should look at the bright side, he gets to miss reporting on all this OJ junk...get well bud! :D
Get well Keith, we love you
from Wiki: (this shit sounds really gross)
Obstruction of the appendiceal lumen has been attributed to a number of common sources including from fecaliths (a hard mass of fecal matter), normal stool, viral induced ulcers, or lymphoid hyperplasia. Once this obstruction occurs the appendix subsequently becomes filled with mucus and distends, increasing intraluminal and intramural pressures, resulting in thrombosis and occlusion of the small vessels, and stasis of lymphatic flow. As these progress, the appendix becomes ischemic and then necrotic. Rarely, spontaneous recovery can occur at this point. As bacteria begin to leak out through the dying walls, pus forms within and around the appendix (suppuration). The end result of this cascade is appendiceal rupture causing peritonitis, which may lead to septicemia and eventually death.
--------------------------------------
Man! Get well soon!
You asked for proof people said that about Tony Snow. It was supplied too you. Now you are going to say "big deal". Typical.
And P.S. to the last poster--"love" may be taking it a bit too far with Olbermann. Let's just wish him well and leave it at that.
Maybe Tony will visit his best buddy Keith in the hospital and talk about baseball...
Get well soon, (you're still a douche though---a douche minus an appendix).
He's a douche nozzle not just a douche.
Plus, granted the douch nozzle is in the hospital from something just mildly worse than childbirth but do we need to lie and call him a "rising prime time star?"
Monday Night at the fights-
Liz Hasselbeck vs. Barry Manilow

Larry Craig vs. Barney Frank

Olbermann should be hung for treason (among other reasons).

I wish Olbermann all the best in his recovery, but what nasty timing for the pundit.
FNIA was so much better without him.
His ratings with the substitute on Friday night put COUNTDOWN in last place.
And he will be out for the majority of the week and COUNTDOWN will continue to show poor ratings.
At least when O'Reilly is out, his show continues to win both total and demo, COUNTDOWN languishes in dead last.
He continues to get bad reviews about his Al Queda and KKK comments.
Poor Olbermann. Karma is a bitch
I will save my concern for someone worthy of it.
Ed, Come on, I hate him 3x as much as you but he's still a human being.

You have to let KO speak if the Republican Party is going to get their message out. Free speech baby. Nothing wrong with it. KO can say whatever he wants. And we can identify him as the jackass he is for it.

true enough royal king, but still, there is no law against cheering for the enemy. Its like how Europe bans nazi references and nazi worship, now i'm sure we all agree that nazi references are wrong and nazis are the greatest evil in history, but something makes me uncomfortable about going so far as to say people can't do it. Its up to society to keep it taboo, not the government to outright ban it.

"There is a fine line between free speech and cheering for the enemy."
I couldn't agree more. It's annoying watching Bush and Cheney doing it repeatedly over the years. Then again, as Americans, they still have the right to do so.
Newsflash, Bush and Cheney are fighting the enemy, not cheering for them. Get off the kool laid. Change flavors or something.

Funny blurb from jossip:
"And while we’re obviously pulling for Keith-O to make a full recovery, we can’t help but point out that only Olbermann would mistake the excruciating pain of a burst appendix with the acute discomfort of sitting through another one of Dubya’s infamous pep talks."
http://www.jossip.com/keith-olbermann/keith-olbermann-had-no-idea-that-keith-olbermanns-appendix-burst-20070918/
After having your appendix burst, nothing like reminding everyone you were "Playgirl's Sexiest Male Newscaster in 2004" (should we demand a recount?):
"While Olbermann would do well to make sure that he's fully recovered the next time he covers the ins and outs of a presidential address, the man who was named Sexiest Male Newscaster by Playgirl in 2004 is hoping to be back to work later this week."

they coming out with a Playgirl Olbermann centerfold---I wanna see that sexy scar...
Funny new Wikipedia entry for Keith Olbermann:
In 1990, Olbermann went public with his battle to lose weight. The 6-foot-4, 250-pound broadcaster said he hoped to lose 50 pounds (he had already lost 15 of those). His battle with the bulge was featured on his evening sportscasts. He offered layman's tips on how to gain control over what you eat and he weighed himself in front of the camera. Olbermann decided to attack his problem when he heard a second-hand comment a friend had made about his weight. He went on to lose the weight but quickly gained it back.
If he was 250 in 1990, there is no way he's still 250 lbs. seventeen years later! (I think he said he was 250 in some SI article not that long ago)....And he calls Roger A. fat ass!?!.
Have you seen him? He's closer to 300 than 250. 250 on a 6'4 guy ain't that much. He looks huge in every picture I've seen of him and his weight is all concentrated in his waist/hips, the most dangerous places (indcators) for heart disease. Dead-man walking if he can't lose that weight.
Whatsamattter, you like it when Olby calls O'Reilly Giant Head or Loofah Boy or whatever, but when Olby gets it back, it's a problem? Sorry this ain't the NY Times or some other suck up rag. Olby get as good as he dishes out here (and then some!)
I like it when Olbermann says "falafel". I hear it makes Bill-o enraged.

Where do you hear that from? The one thing we do know is that O'Reilly ignores Olbermann and that Olbermann continues to embarrass himself by making things up about O'Reilly. The best example of this is when Olby falsely claimed that O'Reilly "supported Nazis". Olbermann made this false accusation after hypocritically warning that it was inappropraite to throw arouond the "nazi" label against people because it debases the true horrific nature of the Holocaust. But, Olbermann is so obsessed with O'Reilly he keeps banging his head against the wall with "Loofah" and Big Head" and other assorted sophomoric stupidity. Meanwhile, O'Reilly continues to ignore his dopey ass and grind him up in the ratings each night.
FYI: The NYT is the paper of record in this country. It's the newspaper where all others are measured by.
Maybe you find it troubling because it's written on a higher reading level than People magazine. ( Probably b/c someone in the right wing rags told you to think that.)
Posted by: a reader at September 18, 2007 11:59 PM
Whatever its reputation may be, the NYT is a paper in decline as reflected by subscription rates, ad revenue and scandals in which editorial writers published wholly manufactured pieces. Recent articles about Olbermann that have appeared in the NYT are rife with the same genuflecting puffery that is charactersitic of the leftist MSM.
Well actually reading the NYT is good preparation fro reading People since both publications are trite, predictable and cliched on each page.
Liberal hypocrisy:

genuflecting puffery that is charactersitic of the leftist MSM.
Well actually reading the NYT is good preparation fro reading People since both publications are trite, predictable and cliched on each page.

Frankly Hank you're not bright enough to come up with this on your own. Who wrote this for you?
New York Times-The paper of record.
In the midst of the buildup to war, a major scandal was unfolding at The New York Times-the paper that sets the news agenda for other media. The Times admitted that for several years a 27-year-old reporter named Jayson Blair had been conning his editors and falsifying stories. He had pretended to be places he hadn't been, fabricated quotes, and just plain lied in order to tell a sensational tale.
Damn yo've got a real talent for cutting and pasting stale news Dipshit. Too bad you don't have the brains to read the NYT. You might learn something.
ARGUS HAMILTON:
"NBC News host Keith Olbermann was hospitalized for a ruptured appendix. He's a savage critic of the war. President Bush said the appendix should have stayed and fought for another six months."
